Question4 A negatively charged block of iron is placed in a region where there is a downward directed electric field E (red arrow). This electric field is generated by charges not shown in the figure. (a) How doe the excess negative charges distribute themselves in the presence of E? Circle the diagram that best describes the charge distribution in and/or on the tron block? Explain your answer. (b) What must be the value of the electric field measured in the interior of the tron block?Explain your answer.

Explanation / Answer

Electric field is directed downward direction hence the electric force on the excess charges would be upwards.diagram b is correct representative

Electric field inside any conductor is zero.
